#32None, good capitalists will optimize their expenses down to $0, and I also expect others to pay for the software I make.

#33ChatGPT and Mullvad VPN.

#34ChatGPT, LinkedIn Premium (purchased at a 50% discount), Infinity for browsing Reddit on Android, Spotify, and YouTube Premium. Among these, Spotify seems the least worthwhile to me. However, since YouTube Premium does the job and both are cheap, I keep subscriptions to both.

#36None, but I do pay for a few services, including BackBlaze and 1and1 hosting.
One time I subscribed to office 365, but that's outside my budget now.
Software is like tools, you buy once, and use forever. OR shareware on the internet, ideally a binary distribution you can keep forever.

#37ChatGPT, server hosting (DigitalOcean) for a personal blog, Kagi Search
What does Kagi offer that is useful to you and Google doesn’t?
The search results are just better for my use case (technical, programming), niche web pages are surfaced more easily than the common SEO websites that flood Google's search results, the summary button at the top that lets me summarize the web pages in the results so I don't need to go hunting through each ones to find the answer, suppressing/encouraging certain sites from appearing in my results more often.
I use search tools a ton for my job, so anything that can help improve my efficiency is a great help.

#38Honestly, not really any of it. My only real subscriptions (web hosting and domain name registration) are done on a yearly basis, and the one site with software I pay for is renewed on a 'when it's needed' basis (since the forum uses XenForo).
Monthly subscriptions just feel stressful for me, as does the idea of paying for something on a recurring basis in general.
